We are seven handsome and charming* guys who meet at a different restaurant every month or so, having read a book in common, and discuss whatever we want--generally the assigned book, but usually many other timely topics as well. We rotate the responsibility to suggest titles, but the group has the final say. Our book club rules: 1) Anything goes, fiction or nonfiction; 2) paperbacks are preferred; and 3) staying under 300 pages is desirable (N.B., we violate this one all the time). We rate all books and restaurants on a 5-point scale.

* All other adjectives were vetoed.

Journey of Man by Spencer Wells (Sanctuary)

Dinner was excellent at Sanctuary in Minneapolis, and the book (Journey of Man by Spencer Wells) got decent, but below average scores. The next book, suggested by Phil, is Alain de Botton’s Art of Travel. Other suggestions: Paul Harding, Tinkers, and Anne Enright, The Gathering.
